I give a thumbs up to the Magguiers ultimate liquid wax. I clay bar the car once a year in the spring (after a wash) after our harsh winters before I apply the polymer wax.

With the warmer spring weather, the rattle I had has disappeared.

The total from speedy was $1217 but it was covered from insurance. I only have a $300 deductible. My windshield has the rain sensing wipers but no other electronics mounted there. The rain sensing wipers are working fine with the new windshield. In Ontario there is no longer any Apple auto...

I pull mine off once a year to get some wax on the whole hood. The push pins/rivets are not reusable so I bought a bag from the dealer quite cheap...part number J001-56-741. You do need to put new 2 sided tape on the ends if you remove the protector. I like having it and I think it adds to...

I went through speedy glass. The thing is, if speedy puts in Orem glass from Mazda it is not covered through their warranty or life time chip repair. There was only a $30 difference between oem and the oem equivalent so I took the equivalent with the speedy guarantee.

I have had no rattles until this week when I had to replace the front windshield. There is now a slight rattle sound over large bumps coming from the front left/centre but not once the interior of the car is warmed up then no sounds anymore. Once the winter and the very cold weather passes I...

Was looking at a new 2016 model in the St. Catharines dealer showroom. None on the lot yet but got a close up look and sat in on the one on display.

Looks nice. Noticed that the luxury option for leather seats is only available with the gs as an option for awd only. I like the leather but tend to get the fwd for the fuel economy savings for the highway commute I do daily.

Thanks Mike. My only experience are with the Blizzak's but I do know they wear down quicker and i would be on pavement most of the time for 130 km per day. Your advice is very helpful.

I am interested in winter tire recommendations for highway drving for my commute. Roads are usually always clear since they are the first roads to get plowed but the reality is the highway is dry pavement most of the time so will certain tires wear out more than others on this kind of surface...

Noticed rail dust a few days after taking possession. Used maguirs clay bar system and it all came off the paint with a few extra rubs on those spots. Never clay barred in my life and was amazed at the results.

Why are people receiving only 1 key with their car?? All cars come with 2 keys including my cx-5. I have never heard of this before.

I am getting 7.4 l/100km with 80% highway driving over the last 5 months. Also my wife had it for 2 months with all city driving and we were getting 7.9 l/100 km. I am happy overall with these results.

Applied clear bra protector film to outside side mirror housing. Did the whole front end--bumper/fender/front hood and headlights soon after delivery but found the mirrors were really getting a beating with highway driving.

Started looking at the car December 2013 but didn't commit to anything. Went in every month to take a quick look and checked the offers for the month. Dealer salesman called me when April hit to tell me that there was now 0% financing for that month. That's what I was waiting for and came in...
